Horror fans. Here are four things I’ve written: 1. Household Horror 2. “Tools of the Trade: A statistical analysis of slasher hardware” (ch 1 in Labors of Fear) 3. “Glitch Gothic” in Cinematic Ghosts 4. “Postdigital Gothic” in the Cambridge History of the Gothic.

We gotta make this man politically toxic. He puts his name next to yours? Primaried! He endorses you? You lose!!
“If Schumer really wanted to use his considerable influence and leverage to stop this, he could have done that,” a senior Democratic Senate aide tells Zeteo. “He didn’t.”
Furious Liberals Call for Schumer to Step Aside, Senate Dems Mostly Quiet

Do any of my followers have connections with the Spence school on the upper east side? They have ghosted me and my research assistant and we are just trying to find out what happened with the wallpaper they said they’d take down in 2020. Just interested in the facts, not judgment.

Here's another bit of conventional wisdom Zohran completely blew away: His speech was at well above a 10th-grade level. It was complex, erudite, punctuated by deep and fluent references. You don't have to condescend to voters with baby talk! Part of re-establishing norms is speaking like an adult.

How are we supposed to trust critics? V/H/S Halloween is great of you’re 15; Frankenstein is absolutely stunning in every way( the wedding dress alone deserves an Oscar). Frankenstein needs a wide release. Everyone should see it in a theater. My favorite adaptation.
